| Abstract
|
:
|
"Feeding half of the population, rice is probably the most important food in the today Rice Improvement in the Genomics Era uses the modern genomic tools available to examine the current findings in studies of rice improvement. In this unique resource, top respected experts in rice science and genomics offer the latest in cutting-edge science and research based on genome sequencing, gene technology, and molecular biology." "Rice Improvement in the Genomics Era provides a wide range of information essential to any professional concerned with food safety, security, and sustainability. It describes rice science from the basics of modern genomics through the application of biotechnology. The text is extensively referenced, and includes photographs, tables, graphs, and figures to clearly present information."--Jacket.
